I'm not sure this is really a problem, but it might well be.

Which would render those bootstrap binaries much less useful since their
user would need to perform a C-only gcc bootstrap just to get this
directory. Fortunately, there seems to be a much easier solution: starting
with GCC 3.3 (I think), there's $libsubdir (or
$libexecsubdir)/install-tools, which contains mkheaders. Just running this
with the appropriate prefix should produce the fixincluded headers
corresponding to the current system.
I'll try this and provide a README explaining how to use it.
